UNTTED STATES PATENT @arreso CHARLES H. WILLIAMS, OF WORCESTER, ASSIGNOR T() THEODCRE C. BATES, OF NORTH BROOKFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.
CORSET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 316,858, dated April 28, 1885.
Application tiled May 26, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that l, CHARLES H. NIL- LIAMs, of Voreester, county of Worcester, State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Corsets, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like letters on the drawings representing like parts.
In this my invention the stiifenin gs are held in place in a novel manner, and the front of the corset is stiffened by means of a metal fasteningstrip, which serves to keep the front of the corset together.
vFigure l represents a sufficient portion of a corset to illustrate myinvention, the fastening-strip being partially broken out. Fig. 2 is a partial section on the line a' x; Fig. 3, a partial section on the linel m2 x2 Figs. 4, 5, and partial sections in the lines w3 .r4 x5, respectively.
The pieces of which the body of the corset is composed are of usual shape and material, with the exception that the piece A is provided with a pocket of sufficient width to receive the broad steel af, which is provided with as many holes as the narrower steel B at the edge of piece C has studs b', the said steel a and cloth of which the pieceA is composed being united by means of eyelets a2, passed through the holes in the steel a', and also through the cloth, as shown in Fig. 4.
The steel a has applied outside of it a steel fastening and stiftenin g plate,D, provided with slots on, to receive the bodies ot' headed pins m, by which the said steel is connected loosely with the steel a, the said steel D having elongated contracted eyes or slots b2, for the passage therethrough of the usual headed studs, b', attached to the steel B.
The steel D is made longitudinally movable, and when the corset is iirst hooked about the body of the wearer the enlarged lower ends of the eyes ZP are in line with the eyelets a2,- but the studs b having been passed through the eyelets and slots b2, the fastening-steel D will be engaged preferably by the projection or thumb-piece a, and will be moved in the direction of the arrow thereon until the narrow portions of the slots b2 are in line with and cover the eyelets, the edges oi the steel D each side the narrow parts of the said slots meeting the studs below their heads, the width of the slots at their narrowest portions being less than that of the heads of the studs.
In Fig. l the corset is fastened.
The shape of the studs b e2 g2 may be changed or modified without departing from my invention, and other usual-shaped studs having heads may be used instead.
The breast-covering portion of the corset is provided with eyelets c, which receive the studs or hooks e2, connected with the distending strip or spring c of metal, proper] y covered with cloth, buckskin, or leather, or of other stift'ening material. This distending-strip will be employed when it is desired that the corset l be distended artilicially; but in case the wearer of the corset does not need the distender, the same may be easily and quickly removed by withdrawing the studs or hooks c2 from the eyelets e.
Heretofore distenders have been stitched into the material of the corset, and in case the person to wear the same does not need an artificial distender, the latter has to be ripped out, requiring considerable trouble, and injuring the appearance of the corset.
The side stift'ening steel or strip, g, is placed in a pocket, g, stitched to the inner side of the corset and left open at top for the reception of the stiEening-steel g, the latter at or near its upper end having a stud or hook, g2, which is inserted through an eyelet, g3, set into the piece 71l of the corset, the said stud and eyelet retaining the steel g down in the open-topped pocket, from which it may be removed when'- ever desired without cutting any stitches, it being only necessary to iirst remove the stud or hook g2 from the eyelet.
It' desired, the shanks of the headed studs e2 may be grasped bya spring-clip, c3, as shown in Fig. l by dotted lines.
I claiml. A corset provided with the broad steel af, inclosed by the cloth at one edge of the corset, and connected therewith by eyelets extended through both, and `the steel B, provided with headed studs, combined with the sliding fastening-steel provided with slots b2, and connected with and so as to slide longitudinally IOO on the steel c.' by means of the slots m and headed studs m, as described, to operate substantially as described.
